The Chasm of Indifference

Whenever one is faced with a binary choice, A or B, 1 or 0, left or right, how do you choose? When both options appear equally plausible, when there is no "better" choice, just a yes or no proposition, what do you do? I often think of this as the chasm of indifference.

Say you come to a fork in the road. Left, or right (assuming the compass does not come into play)? Do you call heads or tails on a coin toss? A dead end intersection: left or right? Something behind my back: do you choose the left hand, or right?

I like the idea of probabilities in outcomes. Statistical significance in choices. Weighing the variances for a more likely positive outcome. But in the chasm of indifference it doesn't matter, and the choice is therefore somehow diminished, lessened by the inability to parse the odds.

For the record, and this has nothing to do with the fact that some people think I'm OCD, I alway turn to the left (southpaw defensiveness?). I always choose heads (tails is for losers, of course, and smart asses). I pick the right hand behind the back, because I'm pointing with my left. I pick 1 instead of 0, up over down.

Do you peeps think about this sort of thing as much as I do? Sure you do. You just wanted someone to vocalize your thoughts, right?

I think it about it all the time. FYI, I break in whatever direction I feel, at the moment, I can escape. I have 6 to choose from.

Instead of a "Chasm of Indifference," I vote for "The Pot-Hole of Life." People fall into a chasm. They get stuck in a hole.

There's a big difference.

Pot Hole of Life works. Although I was using "indifference" as a quantitative analysis term, meaning one is dispassionately indifferent to a decision, as opposed to an emotional term, as in, I treat this person with indifference. Picking pepper out of flyshit, but, you know.

Some of this is just built into your muscles and,um, artistic genes back in the back of your dna, there.

Even though I'm right handed, I drive with my left hand as anchor. I'm more lefty balanced, as it were (tho not politically).

I will take circular things over square and will always go for the asymmetrical over the symmetrical . Three rather than two or four.

I like even numbered years.

I'm commenting here because Acidman told us to.
And, dontcha know he is he who shall be obeyed.

shuh

I like this site. Plus, you have little kids. Mine are in college. Have no idea how you do this, work and remain coherent.

Us Southpaws have to stick together.

Reporting as ordered. As if you need another old fart droolin' on your blog. I think Acidman is trying to get into your sandals. Say what you like about him, and many have, he has good taste.

Back OT: I like prime numbers otherwise it's multiples of four. That makes no sense at all, I know, but that's the way it is.

I'm a rightie but I work at ambidexterity. Hmm, I'm not aware of picking one side over the other when it comes to picking a hand behind the back. That's what the random number generator is for.

Rob says your damn good looking and really smart. I like that in a woman. Oh by the way, he is way to old for a young lady like you.

Posted by: James Old Guy at February 28, 2005 11:49 AM

Key, if you are properly prepared, and being prepared is your focus, there are no "Potholes of Life" to fall in to. You get to a challenge, but having prepared for it, the way around, over or through it is immediately clear to you, and you proceed. It's the warrior's way.

That's MY way, that's my Karma. I'm prepared. Oh, BTW, I am a lefty, also.

Posted by: Paratus at February 28, 2005 12:02 PM

Left or Right at the Fork In The Road? Or at the Dead-end "T" intersection? Which way lets the sun shine over my shoulder to illuminate the road ahead and not have the sun shine in my eyes?

Heads or Tails? Which is prettier?

Left Hand or Right Hand? Right.

Bach or Mozart? Bach

Key...Velociman? Who's driving? I've got to know before I say something stupid....Just saying.

Posted by: Yabu at February 28, 2005 05:25 PM

Damn. I've never had this many dirty old men come onto me. Don't think I'll be guest-posting here for a while.

Posted by: Velociman at February 28, 2005 05:59 PM

LOL

Great post...but as I read through the comments I had to keep going back and see who wrote it! I THOUGHT I saw Velociman, but I've been wrong before.....then laughed so damn hard I forgot what I was gonna say!

Posted by: Tammi at February 28, 2005 09:28 PM

Okay, I guess I love Kim and not Key.

Now, I am frightened.

Posted by: Acidman at February 28, 2005 10:39 PM

Don't be frightened. Rob. This will only take a minute.

Posted by: Velociman at March 1, 2005 01:15 AM

Kim, thanks for the full service filling in. Great post, btw. ; )
